Description

Description of the industrial invention entitled:

"Stroller with moving walk"

DESCRIPTION The stroller is a kind of seat with wheels for taking small children for a walk. There are different types on the market: with three or four wheels, light, super light, twin, fixed or rotating, rigid or with springs and anti-vibration dampers. Usually the accessories included are: leg cover, padded basket and rain cover and screen. In addition to weight and size, safety is an important requirement when choosing a stroller. A safe stroller has safety laces for locking the body, made of soft and resistant material, and safety locks for the wheels, which can be operated via levers placed on the pedal or positional controls on the guide handle.

The most modern models are also equipped with a reversible seat that allows, when the baby is in the first months of life, the position "facing mother": that is, mother and child maintain eye contact to facilitate control and their emotional relationship. When the child is older, the seat of the stroller can be turned to the "forward facing" position, allowing the child to look around and discover the surrounding world.

Most strollers are made with aluminum tubing frames and wheels provided with a thick shockproof rubber tread, which ensure the absorption of the roughness of the ground and provide the highest level of comfort for the little passenger.

The present invention intends to offer, in addition to everything, an exclusive new function that allows the child the motor activity of the legs, conceived for that period of age in which he feels the need to take his first steps.

This function, which is very important for both the physical and psychological development of the child, is made possible thanks to the presence in the stroller of a small moving walkway (treadmill).

This is placed under a special basket, very similar to those present in baby walkers for domestic use, which contains the child's body and keeps him in an upright position so that his feet rest and can move giving or receiving motion from the small moving carpet. .

The basket consists of a circular ring and a central band, the latter with the function of supporting the child and separating the legs, and is adjustable in height.

The movement of the treadmill can be controlled in various ways: by additional systems (eg: battery-powered electric motors) or by the forward movement of the stroller or, more simply, by the movement of the child's legs.

As an alternative to the moving mat, the stroller can be equipped with a fixed, linear or indined top.

The main advantage of the present invention lies in the possibility of motor activity offered to the child while he is being taken for a walk by his mother.

A second advantage is the possibility for the child to train on their legs as if they were inside the walker at home but with the benefit of being outdoors, in parks or around the city, rather than inside the home.

The third advantage is the opportunity offered to the mother to let the baby exercise without the effort of being bent over it to accompany him in his movements.

A further advantage is the possibility of leisure and learning offered to children who, in childhood, have a great curiosity and a great need for stimuli and continuous interactions with the environment for their physical and mental development.

These and other advantages will become clearer from the illustration of the attached tables.

TABLE 1

Fig. 1 Shows ϊ stroller 1 with the mobile belt 2 in the center of the wheels H placed in correspondence with the basket 3, said basket having the task of hosting and keeping the child's body in an upright position.

The basket has a central band 4 to support the weight of the child and facilitate the movement of his legs.

Fig. 2 Shows the stroller 11 in the variant with a normal type seat 12, for those cases in which the child cannot or should not use the moving walk.

Fig. 3 shows the stroller 21 equipped with the moving walkway 22 in which the presence inside it of the support surface 23 is highlighted.

TABLE 2

Fig. 4 shows the stroller 31 in which the support axis 32 of the basket and / or of the seat are highlighted, adjustable in height along the slot 33 obtained on the frame 34 and IBI example of an inclination system of the moving walkway 35, variously it can be positioned on the recesses 36 obtained on the spacers 37.

Fig. 5 shows the stroller 41 in which an electrified traction of the moving walk 42 is hypothesized thanks to the presence on one of its axes 43 of a battery-powered motor 44 on whose motor axis the rubbing paths 45 are integral with their rotation move the moving walkway. The activation of the motor 44 can be conveniently adjusted from the keypad 46, easily able to perform multiple functions such as switching on, switching off, the number of revolutions, etc.

Fig. 6 shows the stroller 51 in which the moving walkway 52 is operated by the movement of the stroller wheels thanks to the presence on the front axle 53 of a pair of reversing rotation rollers 54.

TABLE 3

Fig. 7 shows a variant of the stroller 62 in which the treadmill 61 is made separable from the frame by detaching the terminals 63 from the relative seats 64.

Fig. 8 shows the adaptability of the stroller 71, during the period of non-use of the treadmill, where instead of the latter, other accessories can be conveniently and easily used, such as, in the example illustrated, a basket. objects 72.
